That can happen if the drive is set to the same SCSI ID as the
initiator (controller).

Changed the initiator ID to 7.   Booting now.   From here I will get
TCP/IP running if I can, and then ftp the VMS .IMG over and write it to
the Quantum disk (hopefully).   From there I will boot from the quantum
disk and do an isntall on to the 4G disk turning the Quantum drive in to
user directories.

Sounds good.   Good luck.

Thanks!

Will I want to write the image directly to the Quantum disk, or mount the image and copy the files off?
